Summary/Abstract: The work of art exposes the soul of the artist, but it also brings order in the existential chaos. The one that has to complete it has to go through an artistic transformation, travelling to other spaces and times. This happens in Leonardo da Vinci’s famous work of art, “The Last Supper” which, having a great complexity of symbols and significations, has always been a source of inspiration for other artists and arts (literature, film, photography), interested not necessarily in the biblical theme, but especially in that particular mise-en-place. The proposed study shows the way in which both renewing art and perceiving it becomes possible and presents the most accurate means of drawing the viewer inside the magical circle of creation. The theme especially aims at the complementary text-image relationship, extended to various verbal or nonverbal arts.
